Looking at
pci_match_one_device() it checks both subvendor and subdevice there.

Thanks

But IIUC there is no guarantee that driver with a specific subvendor
matches in presence of a generic one.
So either IFC or virtio pci can win, whichever binds first.

I'm not sure I get there. But I try manually bind IFCVF to qemu's
virtio-net-pci, and it fails.

Thanks

Right but the reverse can happen: virtio-net can bind to IFCVF first.

That's kind of expected. The PF is expected to be bound to virtio-pci to
create VF via sysfs.

Thanks

Once VFs are created, don't we want IFCVF to bind rather than
virtio-pci?

Yes, but for PF we need virtio-pci.

Thanks

(Ab)using the driver_data field for this is an option.
What do you think?
